When you say you've tried everything, what do you mean?

System Preferences->Desktop and Screen Saver -> then just pick one and hit 'test'.

What happens then?
 
when i click test it goes on...by when i exit that out and wait for it to actually turn on..it wont go

In the screensaver menu, it says 'start screen saver' and there is a sliding scale where you choose how long to wait. How long is that set for?
 
maybe try waiting again with no programs running. one of the programs running might be stopping it.
